We have been turned into sheep

We are like children.

White Americans have been raised to believe the most preposterous set of lies about ourselves (land of freedom, etc) and the amount of effort to sustain that belief despite all evidence to the contrary is hard to imagine. Effort from the ruling class (eg “god save America” at the baseball game) but also internal efforts from the people themselves - because the collapse of the lie tears your self image apart. This actually started during the George Floyd Black Lives Matter moment but the reaction the other way brings us back to Trump.

People who want real change, and end to imperialism and capitalism feel isolated and hopeless. 1/3 if the country are committed to racism and misogyny. All lot of better off folks just want the illusions of the old normalcy back.

It doesn’t help that truly unedited critical voices here get shut down for somehow being responsible for Putin.

For something created by communists, for communists - it’s amazing how the loudest voice is people complaining about tankies.

Jealous of the amount of oven spring

Isn’t there a new European thing?

Listened to the video. She didn’t have a great experience.

Sounds like a 1930s tap dancing song.

Went to an Italian-irish-indian restaurant in a small town on the Shannon. I think it was just the restaurant family that normally ate the Indian food, but they let us order it and it was great.

I thought maybe it should spring more?

Wow that’s a great read. If I wasn’t stuck living here, the decline of empire would be very entertaining.

Wait, who’s this Fat Leonard with the sacks of cash?

Can I use it here in Burgerstan?

What does Marmite taste like?

God’s spider

Even without the LDS angle, I expect police to protect business owners over normal people every time.

I’m very average height, 5’ 10" in hamburger units, 178 cm. But I grew about an inch, in the first year at university, to my current height, and to be honest have often felt a little"too big" ever since.

America!

I love my little XteInx x4. Hides in my pocket. Great for epubs from my friend Anna.
